So far so good with this awesome remote and smart hub. In about 30 minutes I was able to set up the hub and IR blaster and have it working with my TV, DVR, PlayStation 4, and Roku. After diving into the accompanying app, I was able to link the hub to my Echo Dot to have voice control of the whole setup such that I could tell Alexa to "turn on Netflix" and the TV would turn on, the input would switch to the Roku, and the Netflix app would launch. It is extremely helpful to be able to issue voice commands to Alexa such as "turn off the TV" and have it actually happen. Other smart devices I've used, and even universal remotes I've tried in the past, didn't work as well as this setup does. I did have to account for the performance of my TV in setting up these commands as my particular set takes longer than average to get fired up. Once I figured out that issue, I was able to build that delay into the programmed actions such that everything is working well.

The remote itself is very useful, and has replaced 4 others that used to sit around cluttering up our couch cushions. It has a good heft such that it feels substantial, but is not too thick or bulky. The textured rubber backing feels very nice and stops the remote from sliding around in your hand or on a table. The included hub is small and unassuming, and blends right in to the rest of the equipment in my entertainment center. The additional IR blaster is very small, and was easily hidden against the base of the TV stand. The buttons on the remote are all a good size and easy to press without accidentally pressing multiple buttons at once, and are arranged in a very logical layout that reduces having to search for the button you are looking for. The associated Harmony App works well enough for product setup, developing pre-set "actions", etc although it has crashed a few times.

I've known about the Harmony line since Logitech released them over a decade ago. I never invested in them because at the time, I was told they were junk. Of course, this was coming from a friend of mine who is a professional home automation/AV guru. The remotes he used were those $300+ remotes by a company called URC (Universal Remote Control) that controls 200+ devices. Of course, I would never pay over $100 for a remote and I don't have 200+ devices... let alone more than in a single room. I do admit, those remotes are wicked cool (Best Buy Magnolia sells them) but they were overkill for the general consumer (me).

Fast forward to today, I've read that the Logitech Harmony remotes have come a LONG way from their beginnings. Not only are they slick, but they are powerful and very functional. Off and on, I've seen the Logitech Harmony 650 &Logitech 700 go on sale but I never pulled the trigger. I eventually found out that the setup I had required a universal remote to do BOTH IR (infrared) and RF (radio frequency) control. The lower end Logitech line is IR *ONLY*. I investigated the other lines and found that the minimum I could get was the Harmony Hub ($99.99 MSRP) but required an "app" on your smartphone or tablet (no remote was included). However, I'm a cheapskate and I wanted a physical remote but I refused to pay that much for a remote.

Then came the day where there was a sale on the Harmony Hub w/ Remote (which is the item I'm reviewing). Amazon had it listed for $69.99 for 1 day only (a discount of $60). I immediately pulled the trigger on it and I haven't looked back since. Now knowing what I know, I should have bought this a LONG TIME AGO.

Here's what I like about it:1. Controls literally everything (it gets its info from the Logitech "Cloud". Therefore there are always devices added to it, thus the remote never goes "obsolete".2. Has General Activities Out Of the Box, But Can Be Customized and Tweaked to your liking. For example, my sound system utilizes HDMI ARC, which turns on/off depending on if the TV turns on/off. The activities involving a TV had each device come on/off individually. I tweaked the macros to just ignore the soundbar functions and let the HDMI ARC do it's job. Another example is the delays of each macro step was too long for my liking. It would have me wait several seconds just to flip between activities. I modified each action and shaved off a couple seconds and I wasn't sitting there waiting.3. Controls more than just entertainment systems, but anything that can be controlled with a remote: Thermostats, Lights, Alexa, Sonos, etc. With just 1 device, you can do anything in regards to home automation.4. Easy to program. Took me just 30 minutes to set up my activities consisting of Smart TV, Cable, FireTV, and Radio functions.5. Controls IR, RF, Bluetooth devices.6. Comes with an IR BLASTER! Which separately with other high-end remotes is just another accessory to buy.7. I ditched 4 remotes for just 1. THANK YOU LOGITECH

Watching/listening to different activities has been consolidated to just 1 remote. I can't believe how easy it was to setup and get working. As I mentioned in my likes points, I no longer have to fish/find multiple remotes depending on the activity I want to do. 1 remote does it all. Again, I got the remote/hub at a steal of a price but had I known what I know now, I would have bought it at retail price.

This is a really impressive system. Despite being a long time, mostly satisfied, Harmony user, I hesitated buying the hub version because I was convinced it would not work well in my setup where the only practical placement of the the hub is directly on-top of and vertically adjacent to the devices it would be controlling (see picture).

The term "IR blaster" seems appropriate enough in this case. In my case, the hub is placed directly on top of and next to the DirectTV and Receiver, and is actually SEPARATED from the TV by a cabinet with no line of sight at all. Yet, it all works perfectly. It reliably controls these devices.

The minimal remote is nicer than the last few generations of full featured remotes and the RF communications between the hub and remote is rock solid. It's responsive and the smartphone setup is very nicely implemented.
